Hello! In old FC, I was able to drag attachments out of Thunderbird into an FC pane and the file would move normally. Normally I can drag attachment files from Thunderbird into Windows Explorer. But the new FCXE doesn't seem to use the Windows-Explorer as a base for file operations. So now, when I drag an attachment from Thunderbird onto FC, I get a "no" circle (you know, the circle with the diagonal inside?).

Also, I have been using a program called Mmmm. It allows me to rearrange the entries in my context menu and move them into folders. It works for Windows Explorer. In old FC, since it was Windows-Explorer based (somehow), Mmmm worked there too. It doesn't work anymore in FCXE.

When I drag & drop a file from XnView, it does indeed transfer, but FCXE doesn't display it until you manually refresh or you open another program window in front (over top) of FCXE. That suggests a paint error to me.

I just tried dragging files from FCXE 550 into Q-Dir, and it's a no go. I can ctrl+copy and ctrl+paste with no problem. Drag and drop shows FC's nifty icon, but nothing happens at the dropppoint. This was never an issue in old FC.

Thunderbird, XnView, Q-Dir: drag&drop with FC XE works for me (Win 7/64).

Same here!

Okay, maybe something happened in the new beta, or maybe my computer is fickle. But I can no longer produce the issue with Thunderbird or XnView, but I still can't drag files from FC into Q-Dir.
